"I hired Lori in September 2010 to be my speech pathologist because I stutter and stammer. Throughout the 9-10 months that I worked with her, she was absolutely amazing. She's given me the confidence, speech tools, and strength to be who I am today. I can speak in front of crowds, and classes with no problems at all. Lori is a great speech pathologist and a great friend."

MEET LORI

Lori Melnitsky, M.A., CCC-SLP

I’m a licensed and certified Speech-Language Pathologist and ADHD Life Coach with over 25 years of experience treating stuttering, speech, and executive function skills. I am certified in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, California and Florida.

I have proudly helped hundreds of children, teens, and adults to stutter less and communicate with confidence. I personally stuttered severely until my early 20’s, struggling to participate in class, call friends on the phone, and say my own name. But here’s what I really want you to know: Stuttering did not stop me, and it won’t stop you either.

"It comforted me that she also stuttered, because then it means that she really understands the problem. And that's why I feel so comfortable with her."
